Hello,

I understand that Slicer’s Python auto-complete is not fully supported. [Through previous discussions and various configuration attempts](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/developing-slicer-modules-in-visual-studio-visual-studio-code/9496/25), I was able to confirm that auto-completion works to some extent when Slicer is connected to a debugger. However, after resetting my VSCode settings to reproduce the setup, I found that while debugging still works fine, auto-completion no longer functions.

Would you happen to know if there are any additional settings required to enable auto-completion while debugging? Also, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to improve the development experience.

Thank you in advance for your guidance.
